New stats from RCMP prove what some have been preaching for a long time.....seatbelts save lives. Officers tell us 90% of drivers in the Province buckle up before starting their vehicle but the 10% who don't account for 44% of those killed on Provincial Highways.
No matter what you have planned for this Long Weekend, if it involves driving, RCMP remind everyone to buckle up as they will be conducting check-stops all weekend.

Huntman Marine Science Center At Halfway Point
It's officially at the half way mark with the concrete hitting the ground this week for the New Huntsman Marine Science Centre.
‘Seal the Deal’ campaign was launched in October of last year to raise the remaining $2 million it needed to complete the new Discovery Centre, which will cost $8 million to complete.
One million already raised, and $2.5 million from both the provincial and federal governments, the target was to reach $2 million before the doors to the new facility open in June 2011.
The new centre, complete with aquarium, 226-seat theatre, wet lab, and conference rooms will be open year-round. Plans for the new building are on show at the temporary aquarium, which is open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., at the Huntsman this year.
